Kevin Kilpatrick Jr. entered the Atlanta Braves organization as a bit of a fan favorite, considering he is a local player with great makeup. Despite being a late-round pick, the toolsy outfielder has the potential to outperform his draft position as a player who can do a little bit of everything.
How Acquired
The Braves used their 17th round pick in the 2022 MLB Draft to take Kilpatrick from a junior college in Central Florida, though he was viewed as more of a local product after having graduated from Redan High School in Stone Mountain, Georgia.
